Participant Flow

MTN-025 was implemented as a follow-on trial to MTN-020, and the inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to ensure the appropriate selection of trial participants for MTN-025. The Decliner Population were former MTN-020 participants who declined participation in the main MTN-025 trial, and who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria Women in the Decliner Population were invited to complete a single visit which consisted of behavioral assessments.

Participants were recruited from RC cohorts of MTN-020 participants. Efforts were made by RCs to maintain contact with MTN-020 (ASPIRE) participants between the end of follow-up in MTN-020 and the initiation of the MTN-025 trial (HOPE) to provide MTN-020 trial results and information regarding the HOPE trial to participants.
